If this happens, the bolt could break and the shift lever could fall off, making it impossible to change gears. rn rnSafety Risk: rnAn inability to change gears could increase the risk of a crash.rn rnCorrective Actions: rnHonda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealer to replace the shift lever pivot bolt. Dealers will also apply a thread locking compound to the bolt.
